Saddle Horses and Their Cats,

The increased demand for saddle horses,
so apparent of late in the east, is felt all
over the country, hence the subject of sad
die horses and their gaits, treated by such
acknowledged authority as The National
Live Stock journal, will doubtless prove
of general interest.
The gaits for a saddle horse are the
walk, the fox trot, the single foot and the
rack The walk is gait understood by
everybody; but everybody does not I'M
derstand that n good saddle horse ought
to be able to go square walk at the rate
of five miles an hour. The fox trot is
faster than the square walk, and the
horse will usually take few steps at this
gait when changing from a fast walk to
trot. 1t may be easily taught to most
horses by urging them slightly beyond
their ordinary walking speed, and, when
they strike the fox trot step, holding them
tott. They will soon learn to Like IT, and

Things Farmers Tell One Another.

Stable manure, says Professor Chamber
lain, of Iowa, is the best fertilizer on earth
Professor Roberts favors a free use of
cottonseed meal for cows, on account of its
being good milk producing food and the
fertilizing properties it leaves in the drop
pings.
p. J, Berckman, Augusta, Ga, who
has tested many varieties of strawberries,
numbers the following rich sorts that
thrive in moist Soils Sharpless, Wilson,
Downing, Kentucky and Monarch of the
West.
Josiah Hopes says that Crawford s
Lotto, Druid Hill, Mountain Rose, Old
Nixon, Pinock, Reeves favorite and
Stump are the cream of long list of
peaches certain to produce crops wherever
peaches can be grown at all.
An experienced stockman tells that n
ton of bran fed with two tons of hay is
worth as much rs four tons of hay fed
alone to either horses, cattle or sheep.
The feed cutter is necessary to make bran
so profitable feed.
Wick says "1he practice of spraying
apple orchards just after the fruit has set
with Paris green or London purple is com
ing more and more into favor, as it proves
to be effective for the destruction of the
Goblin moth, and with no injurious effects

AS rule, milk is richer in the fall and
poorer in the spring. The quality of cows
milk is not only affected by the age of the
animal, but by the distance from the time
of calving. Climate eXcites considerable
influence on the quality of milk In moist
and temperate seasons a larger quantity
though generally poorer quality, of milk
is obtained than in dry warm seasons
The race and breed and size of animals of
course, exercises Il powerful influence on
quality of milk.
Variations in the composition of milk
are dependent also upon age and bodily
health. Professor Willard calls attention
to the fact that other things being equal,
young COWS yield milk more rich in
solids than do old cows, a view not adopted
by all American dairymen, some of whom
believe that an old cows milk is us good
If not better than young ones. English
dairymen agree with Professor Willard,
and generally observe the rule of turning
off their mich COWS at from seven to eight
years of age.
Good milk of average quality, according
to Voelcker, contains from 10 1-2 to II
per cent of dry matter and about 1-2 per
cent. of pure fat. 1t yields from to 10
per cent, of cream. Milk that contains
more than 80 per cent. Of water and less
than per cent, of pure fat is naturally
very poor or has been adulterated.
When milk contains from IL to 10 1-2
per cent of solid matter and from to
1-2 per cent of pure fatty substance it
is rich and if it contains more than II 1-2
per cent. Of dry matter and per cent. or
more of pure fat it is Of extra rich quality.
Such milk throws Off from II to IL per
cent. of cream in bulk on standing for
twenty-four hours at G2 dogs. Fair, as
has been proven by the experiments OF
Professor Willard and others.

Profit in Mules.

There is one branch of stock raising
which is not by any means overdone, and
that is the raising of mules. AS the scope
of agricultural country in the United
States increases, the greater the demand
for animals suited for draft purposes,
and it is an acknowledged fact that in
many sections the mule has as many
friends as the horse for this object. The
great arguments in favor of mules are
their hardness, endurance and the ease
with which they can be sold.
A Kentucky breeder, who has been en-
gagged in raising mules for thirty years,
makes the following suggestions: The
raising of mules in Kentucky or the west
is not profitable unless the animals pro-
duced be of good aize-say from fourteen
and one-half to fifteen and one-half hands
high. The best jacks for this class of
mules are not less than fifteen hands The
dams are of equal Importance and should
be improved blooded mares Mules from
such crosses are the best seen i'll Kentucky
and always command a good price. The
most important improvement in jacks in
the state of Kentucky was through the
introduction of the well known Spanish
jacks Mammoth and Warrior These were
imported from Spain between the years
1885 and 1910. These jacks, at date of
arrival, We're valued at and cost, $4,000
each, and were full sixteen hands high.
AS breeders, they We're remarkably fine,
and greatly improved the size of the jack
stock by crossing on the common iennct
of Kentucky Later importations from
the same source made additional improve
ments, but none so decided as the two
above named.
According to estimates made by the
United States agricultural department, the
state in which mules rate highest is New
Jersey, the next highest being in
Maryland. Texas has the greatest num-
Der of any state, and the animals are val
ued at lower priceless than one-half
the average value in New Jersey, for in
stance. Kentucky and Missouri show up
well in this industry.
The prejudice against the mule is an
unjust one For farm work and road
hauling it exceeds all other animals; it is
more economical, is stronger, harder,
never gets sick, and, according to old
traditions, never dies.

Almost any farm hand can split rails,
but there is considerable science to be OBJ
served in the work. One man will rive
them with ease, while another equally as
stout will tug away and soon exhaust his
strength, with comparative small results.
The reason of this great disparity is in
knowing how to apply the tools. But con-
siderable advantage may be derived by an
expert hand in having suitable tools. The
best maui to be used is made of knot,
and should be of medium weight, not toe
heavy to swing with ease. One iron
wedge, quite slim, should be kept and
used for starting the split; it is not apt tc
rebound, and if it should, it may be easily
prevented by making a few checks with
an axe near together, and starting the
wedge between them, or by rubbing the
wedge in dirt-Planters' Journal.

If she is disposed to lie down, as some
